E-Access Library Cards

E-Access Library Cards

An E-access Library Card provides residents of the City of Duluth with temporary access to all of the digital resources the Duluth Public Library offers—-e-books, audiobooks, magazines, and databases like Tumblebook Library, NewsBank, and Ancestry.

To Receive an E-Access Library Card, you must:

Live within the city limits of Duluth. If you live outside of the city limits, the Arrowhead Library System is offering a similar library card to residents of their seven-county area. Visit https://bit.ly/2Uefgv9to apply for an Arrowhead Library System card.

Fill out our online registration form. Please provide an email address. It is the easiest and fastest way to receive your E-access Library Card.

Wait patiently. We are working remotely and under unusual circumstances. You can expect an email with your E-access Library Card number within 2-3 business days.

Stay home and stay safe. Enjoy access to over 25,000 ebooks, audiobooks, and magazines without having to leave your home. Discover a new author or genre. Dream about the garden you will plant this summer. Try a new cookbook. Research your family tree.

E-access Library Cards will expire on July 1, 2020. Once we re-open our physical locations, we encourage you to visit us to convert your E-access Library Card to a permanent library card. A permanent card will allow access to physical materials along with the digital access this card provides. To convert an E-access Library Card to a permanent card, you must provide a government-issued photo ID (e.g., state-issued driver's license, state-issued ID card, passport, military ID, tribal ID, etc.) and proof of your current address.
